The annual Hong Kong Jewelry and Gem Fair glitters with color this year, as Gan Tian finds out.
Big, bold and colorful. These are the hottest trends in jewelry this year, if the latest designs at the Hong Kong Jewelry and Gem Fair are any indications. Colored gemstones stand out on jewelry that combines two or more varieties. Some of the more popular gems include ruby, deep pink sapphire and sky-blue topaz.
An example is an opulent necklace glittering at Hong Kong Premier Pavilion, set with a giant Paraiba tourmaline. It is priced at a cool 20 million yuan ($2,974,000).
